Controller-level oversight

We review your monthly close, strengthen controls over cash, payables and payroll, and make sure your reports are accurate and on time. You get the same discipline larger companies rely on, scaled to your business.

Planning and decision support

Should you hire, buy equipment, take on a bigger contract or open a new location? We model the options, show the effect on cash and profit and give you a clear recommendation. We meet with you monthly or quarterly to review results against plan and adjust.

Cash flow, banking and financing

We build and maintain cash forecasts, improve collections, and prepare you for conversations with banks, sureties and investors, including the reporting package they'll ask for.

Technology and AI refresh

Many businesses run on tools that no longer fit. We review your accounting, payroll and operations systems and recommend practical upgrades, including AI tools that capture expenses, categorize transactions and keep reporting current, so your team spends less time on busywork. When it's time to switch or connect systems, we handle the setup, migration and integrations.

FAQ

Common questions

What does a fractional CFO do?

A fractional CFO provides senior financial leadership part-time: planning, cash management, reporting and decision support, without the cost of a full-time hire.

Is my business big enough for a fractional CFO?

If you're making decisions about hiring, financing or growth and want better numbers behind them, it's worth a conversation. We scale the engagement to your size.

Do you also do the bookkeeping?

We can. Many clients have us handle bookkeeping and reporting so the CFO-level work is built on books we know are right. We also work with in-house bookkeepers.
